I had a really hard time in this class and she was not helpful at all.

DO NOT TAKE ON-LINE!!!! AVOID AT ALL COST. This lady is crazy with these tests! I would rather eat glass then take this lady again!

If you take her class online, I warn you that it really isn't a class at all. To pass, you must read the entire chapter twice, because she will pick out the most minute details that you'll still wish you had read it another time regardless. She doesn't give notes to study from, but rather a copy of each section's headline with a general idea. A Wai

This was the most difficult class I have ever taken. I would not reccomend taking it online. She is a very crude lady. I explained to her on several occasions when I would be unable to take the quizzes at the specified times, and she would not work with me. She forced me to bring an obituary or program from my Grandmothers funeral to make-up a test

Who does 4 tests, 110 questions (fill in the blank, multiple choice) in history with 4 chapter per test, no extra credit or assingments available when she know her tests are a beast! I wish I would have known about this site and her before taking the course!

I took Mrs. Gross for History 101 online and I seriously regret it tremendously. As an incoming freshman, I had no idea what I was getting myself into and her class has hurt my GPA. She literally hasn't done anything to help me as a student. I have had to read the material and teach myself everything. She is also extremely rude when you email her to ask questions. You might as well be the one getting paid to teach yourself because she's a sorry excuse for a teacher. Don't take this class. EVER

She didn't tell the bookstore that her students needed the books until class started so I had to take the first 3 test w/out a book. Only grade you'll get is from the test which is once a week. I've asked for help & got very little of it. 10/10 wouldn't recommend.

I'm a freshman in college currently taking this class online, and am having a difficult time on the tests. I am an A student and currently have a C, and I'm tidying like crazy. This course is very hard and I would definitely recommend a different teacher.

Do NOT take this prof if you want a good grade. Even online her classes are extremely difficult - no teaching, only READING the pro-Communist book she wrote, taking a multiple choice test a week: questions with vague answers, trick questions, etc. Says not to use book/notes, but you can't get a good grade without them. Worst class I've ever taken.

I do not recommend her. Im taking this class online and the test are extremely hard. Youre not supposed to use notes or the book on the test, but its impossible if you want to make a decent grade. Also, if you email during the week about something, dont expect to get an email back until sometime the next day. I dont recommend taking her at all

She gives you mountains of information that you have to learn in a week and basically forget because there isnt a cumulative test. The worst thing is that you have to get honorlock on your computer which will not allow you to have any tabs open or have anything out except a piece of paper. They will know if you are on your phone.

This class is ridiculous. You have a test a week which is on one entire chapter. You have to pay for the proctoring service she uses. She gives you in depth study questions along with several articles to read as if the 50 page chapters aren't enough already. I am taking a full load of classes and she makes this class next to impossible. Hated it.

The worst class I have ever taken. First off you have to pay for system that VIDEOS you when you take a test. Then you have to remember 70 textbook pages worth of information you will forget in a week. SEVENTY!! It is almost impossible to even make a B on the tests which are weekly. I spend around 10 hours a week reading and still can't do even ok

I took 14 test, not quizzes, each test was over 50 questions. You have to read every chapter and search chapter is super long. She also honorlocks her test which is something you have to pay for and the record your screen. I do not recommend her what so ever.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR IF YOU WANT TO PASS. UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO SIT DOWN AND READ 80 PAGES OF THE TEXTBOOK EACH WEEK TO PASS A TEST. DO. NOT. TAKE. THIS. PROFFESSOR. SHE IS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL.

Be willing to spend 30 hours a week reading and taking notes. The only assignments are tests that are 55-60 true or false and multiple choice. Each chapter is around 30-70 pages. There are no study guides. One of the hardest classes I've ever taken. If you have text anxiety this is NOT the class for you.

I took Dr. Gross(make sure you address her by Dr. or she will NOT respond to you)for Hy 202 online my first semester of college. It was definitely the hardest class I had this semester. She requires you to read anywhere from 50-80+ pages a week. She does not let you know what will be on the test and focuses on the social concepts instead of dates

She is not helpful; when I asked for help, its not that your not studying and more youre not studying right. Expected to read a chapter, watch videos, read primary source collections which consists of around 8 links with long passages each, and read a powerpoint around 10 or more slides, try and remember it, and then take a big test each week.

Took in my final year and it is set to derail my graduation. The course is read a 30-70 chapter and a 50+? test each week. No clear guidance on what tests cover. Lack of clear guidance or defined learning objectives leaves students to fail with little hope of redemption. I am anticipating round 2 with a better instructor; DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!

She has no right to call herself a professor. She does not do anything. She assigns a book and gives you lesson plan basically of what chapters to read and you test on a chapter every week. 70+ pages of information to retain and tests of around 60 questions. DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE!!!

Took this teacher for HY 202. Class consists of reading 60+ pages for each chapter every week, and then testing on the material weekly. There is no clear outline of what will be on each test, and simply reading through the material is not enough to pass them. Additionally, don't expect very much communication from this teacher via email.

I took Dr. Gross doing COVID and you would think a teacher would help her students, well I think not. Her test are extra long 50+ questions and they consist of T/F and Multiple choice questions. In order to pass the class you must read each chapter that she gives you in its entirety and if you dont well at least you know your failing that test.

She was awful. Took her during COVID-19 and gave 60 question tests every week. If you didn't read the chapter in its entirety, you were bound to fail. I do NOT recommend.

This teacher is terrible. You have to read a 40-60 page chapter and test every tuesday. She uses honorlock which videos and records you. Her tests are 50-65 questions long and her class is extremely hard. I would not recommend or take her class again.

Worst class I have ever taken. We were expected to read a chapter a week which consisted of 50-70 pages and take a test on it. The questions come exactly from the textbook, but it is impossible to remember that much information from all of the pages you are required to read. If you ask for help, she says to read the chapter so she is no help at all

do not take.

I use to be a A/B student until I took this course. Be prepared to spend almost all of your time reading the textbook and notes. You have a chapter exam each week with anywhere to 50-60 questions. As soon as you are done learning a chapter you have to turn around and study a new one within a week. I wouldnt recommend taking this course.

I took this class online because of COVID and immediately regretted it. Dr. Gross doesnt teach at all for this course so you have to read the 25-50 page chapters multiple times to get a good grade on the weekly exam. The only positive aspect of this class is that the grade canvas shows is much lower than your actual grade. My 71 turned into an 86.

Super hard test each week. insane amount of stuff to study for the test & each test is around 60 questions.

don't take the class trust me

A lot of reading and studying but no extra assignments to help bring up your grade from the exams every week

She does not teach at all. The class is just 15 tests and she does zero teaching for them.

Terrible professor.
